*The illusionist and The Prestige are drama thrillers. Traditionally a slower paced thriller with elements recognizable to a drama film eg. character development. Some of my two favorite thrillers they keep you thinking from the start to the end. I hope we can give our thriller the same thinking, working it out feeling. We hope to achieve setting the scene to this with the origami swans subtly placed in both situations. Making the audience work to make connections.
